"Well for starters it's not very practical, secondly the last thing I want is to hear girls complaining about getting dung on their favourite pair or between their toes, and lastly I don't need anybody tripping up and falling over. It's just... safer without them." Even if it wasn't as fashionable.
Hmmm 2067-71 .. "So she started only two years after I graduated. Bit of a shame." Or a blessing in disguise? who knew? Being taught by a students relative could get awkward.
"Oh don't thank me. The gardens and greenhouses are there for you to utilize, I'd be thanking you for making my job easier."
Well obviously heels weren't practical; they weren't practical in day-to-day life and they sure weren't practical when one was working! Tori frowned a little at the professor's no-nonsense answer but was wise enough not to argue. "I guess it
would stink to get dung on my favorite pair of shoes...." she sighed. "I guess."
Yeah, it was a total shame! "Annie was the best professor ever to teach at Hogwarts," Tori blurted without a thought. "I mean, that's what I heard, anyway. Just word on the street and all that." Cough. Right. Totally unbiased answer there.
She nodded at mention of the greenhouses and stood up from her seat then. "Well, thanks for having me, professor. I'll go get started on the flutterbys now since I'm sure you have lots of students waiting to see you." Tori smiled politely and headed for the door, pausing by the sleeping puppy to give him a little wave too. "Bye boy!"
